this is the thread for predicting/counting down until donald trump's inevitable impeachment.

feel free to place some light hearted (non-monetary) bets, toxx yourself, or just use the thread to take a load off and remind yourself that something will eventually have to give. it's become quite evident after only a week and change that there's no way a man with so many (powerful) enemies, who is so incompetent and unlikable and irresponsible to the core, could possibly remain in office for an entire four year term

6 months for the GOP to stop pretending that he is a Republican so that they have to defend him all the timd

6 more months for the Democrats to find the sack to start the impeachment process

12 more months until the midterm elections

6 more months as a fudge factor

I say the impeachment will come to a vote in 30 months, in the summer of 2019

If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.
2% of his term is already nearly over, done and dusted.

Mike Pence will be POTUS then. With that and a few Supreme Court appointments we'll start defenestrating homosexuals.

I don't think it is certain he will be impeached.

I can see any of these things happening:

Impeachment
Death in office due to legitimate causes
Same, but illegitimate, ie: assassination
Losing in 2020
Rigging the 2020 election by disenfranchising millions of voters
Refusing to leave office by 2024 and doing some other hosed up illegal poo poo to stay

I guess those last two are reasons he'd stay.

So I'll go with impeachment. This year. He's gonna go so far overboard that congress just can't ignore it. I mean so far out there that even the far right wing constituents are screaming at their representatives.

i was gonna put "or otherwise removed from power" but i didnt want the mods to think i was insinuating anything.

please use this thread to make predictions about when trump will no longer be in office. i guess "hurrrr the end of his 2nd term :bravo:" or "never" are acceptable answers. no arguing or other things about trump there are plenty of other threads for that.

I was playing Harvest Moon 64 with this kid who lived on my street and my cows were not doing well and I got so raged up and frustrated that my eyes welled up with tears and my friend was like are you crying dude. Are you crying because of the cows. I didn't understand the feeding mechanic.

I expect the left will time it for around midterms, with 2018 being a litmus test on support for Trump or not. The left being the left will end up losing every Senate seat and House seat and go extinct by 2020. There will then be a Civil War but only among DLC centrist/Blue Dog Democrats and the Bernie wing; like a literal Civil War in blue states.

I think he'll crash out of the presidency in a gigantic huff within 2 years, as the opposition to him gets its act together and he discovers that even presidents can't just do whatever they want, whenever they want. Either that, or he'll die in office. I don't believe for a moment that he'll last the full term.
